The young folk appeared to not the least interesting portion of the proceeding) joyed their hearty meal with much seeming relish. e js , The splendid silver candelabrum which had been pur chased by the negroes of Jamaica for the Marquis of Sligo, was then exhibited to the meeting by Mr. Sturge, who ex plained to the children the motives which had Ma( need the negroes in making the present. Around the pedestal were the figures of a negro man and woman reading the Bible, undk r their feet was a b ok , n whip, and in the back ground was a negro boy feeding a goat. The pedest it was fennel of the stem of the Erica-palm, one of the most beautiful of the Jamaica trees, the whole being tastefully ornamented with wreaths of laurels, &c. Mr. Swims: explained to the meeting that the Marquis of Sligo had a ftw years ago been Governor of Jamaica, and although a slave owner himself, he soon found out how the negroes were oppressed, and resolved to befriend them. In doing this he had been exposed to much obloquy and contempt, and was at leng:h compelled to leave the island. The negroes, grateful fur the kindness they had expe rienced at his hands subscribed in small sums upwards of 1,000 dollars, which had been entrusted to him to purchars some testimonial of their esteem and respect. ForemoA in promoting the work had been Mr. Charles Harvey, the Secretary at Jamaica, whom he now begged to introduce to the meeting.—(Cheers.) Mr. HARVEY and Dr. PALMER subsequently addressed a few observations to the meeting, and at one o'clock the procession, which was headed by the Committee, pro ceeded to the site of the intended schools—the children were arranged four deep, each class being headed by the teachers, the procession extending for nearly a rn:le, and in this order they proceeded through Anne street, Colman-row, Steel-house-lane, Aston-street, Wood cock-street, and Heneage-street to the ground, where an immense assemblage of persons bad been for some time collected. A large area had been railed off at that part where the foundation-stone was to be deposited, and within this were assembled the Committee and other gentlemen of the town, among whom we observed, Joseph Sturge, Esq., John Scoble, Esq., Lieutenant-Col. Moxon, Dr. Palmer, Charles Harvey, Esq. of Jamaica, Rev. Dr. Hoby, Rev. Messrs. Swan, Morgan, Cheedle, Ham, Tho mas Scales, of Leeds, &c. &c. Around this area the chil dren were ranged, and the immense open space was filled with thousands of deeply interested spectators. The children haring sung the hymn, " The Trump of Freedom Sounds," the Rev. Mr. Morgan pronounced an appropriate prayer and blessing upon the work. A copper plate with the following inscription, was then deposited in the foundation-stone by Mr. Sturge—" The foundation stone of these School-rooms was laid on Wednesday, the Ist of August, 1838, in commemoration of the abolition of Negro Apprenticeship in the Colonies, by the friend of the Negro, the friend of children, and the friend of man, JOSEPH STURGE, ESQ., in the presence of the United Bap tist Sunday Schools, and assisted by the Baptist Ministers of Birmingham. Secretaries to the Building Fund, William Middlemore, William Morgan. Architect, Charles Edge, Contractor, Sampson Webbe." The Rev. Mr. MORGAN said they had now to consult the meeting as to the name which should be given to the schools, and several were immediately proposed, but the majority appeared to be in favour of naming the intended building •" The Negro Emancipation Schools." The stone was then gradually lowered into its place, Mr. Sturge adjusting it with the trowel, and three loud and hearty cheers were given by the vast assemblage. Mr. STURGE then biiefly addressed the meeting. He had just had the pleasure of laying the foundation-stone of the new building, which, as he understood the opinion of the meeting, was to be called " The Negro Emancipation Schools."—(Cheers.) He wished, however, to guard his friends against a little mistake, lest they might infer from the inscription that had just been read, that the negroes were all emancipated.—(Hear, hear.) He wished to im press upon his friends and the country, that there was a good deal of work still before them, and he trasted that the present work would induce all parties to in terest themselves in promoting the condition of the negro. Had it not been for the labours of the Missionaries in the West Indies and:elsewhere, the negroes would still be in spiritual and temporal bondage, and when two or three of his friends, whom he saw present, had reported what had occurred there to-day, it would act as a stimulus to others to assist in the work of education. and improvement.—(Hear, and cheers.) The other day a procession of 1,500 children-had taken place at Falmouth, in Jamaica, to lay the foundation stone of William Knibb's schools, as they were called.—(Cheers.) The cause of that interesfng young man's death was his joy at the emancipation of the negroes, and he hoped his young friends would be stimulated by the example of that ex cellent young man.—(Cheers.) The proceedings closed with another hymn, after which the immense assemblage quietly dispersed. GREAT MEETING AT THE TOWN HALL. In the evening a very numerous and respectable meet ing took place in the Town Hall. The body of the im mense building, as well as the galleries, were crowded to excess ; the whole assemblage was admitted by paid tickets. There were a large number of ladies among the auditory. At a quarter before six o'clock, on the motion of William Scholefield, Esq., High Bailiff, Sir Eardley Wilmot, Bart., M.P., was called to the chair amidst general cheering. •-....., 41 .7 kr WITH WHIT /1 " TRUE SUN" IS NOW INCORPORATED.

With this view the Proprietors of the Gray's-inn Wine Esta blishment (anticipating these results from the intrinsic quality of the Wine) caused 2,500 dozen to be put in bottle in the year 1835, and have since annually increasedtheir stock, so that they might be in the same position with this as with the other Wines in which they deal, and be enabled to keep up a constant supply of matured and old bottled Wine. It is now in brilliant condition, with a firm crust; may be moved without the slightest injury ; and the nobi lity and public in general are respectfully invited to pass their judg ment on it at the vaults of their Establishment. The Proprietors regret the necessity of again cautioning the public and the country wine-merchants against various common red Wines which have been in many instances surreptitiously im posed upon the wine-merchants, ai.d through them, unknowingly, upon the public, as the genuine Masdeu, to which they have no more affinity than the Port Wine produced in Figueira has to the hi Best quality of the vineyards of the Alto Douro.

THERE is perhaps no situation in life so full of embarrassment as when the over-sensitive f-ei themselves compelled to reveal their moral indiscretions, or their I r ,ical imperfec. lions, to others. Day after day does the horns of exposaro accumulate in the morbid imag nation, while increasing disease augments the suffer ing of the body and the irritability of the mind. Sensible of the anguish thus protracted, we have adopted a system which long practical experience has proved to be highly successful, and which preclude; the absolute ne cessity of personal communication with those who recoil from such mode of consultation. A full and minute description of the case, written in plain language, will enable us to treat the patient with delicate secrecy; and such has been the peculiar nature of our practice, embracing every variety of difficult circumstances that the most timid may'leel encourage ment i.s the opportunity th.'s afforded them. Twenty-five years of practice, exclusively devoted to diseases arising from indiscretion, gaiety, or climate, whereby the constitution may have become enfeebled, enable us to promise a restoration to health, without any interference with the ordinary diet and habits. Messrs. GOSS and Co. are to be consulted, as usual, every day, at their residence; and Patients in the remotest parts of the country can be treated successfully on their describing minutely the case, and en closing a remittance for Advice and Medicine. No difficulty eau occur, as the Medicines will be securely packed, and carefully protected from observation. DOSS and CO., M. R. C.

Some of the young and strong grounds are looking healthy, but the weakly ones are not so well Gazette. Arrang merits were made in the course of yesterday in this town to celebrate the Emancipation of the Negroes in the East Indian Colonies in the most appropriate and joyous mariner. It was arranged that the business of the day should commence with laying the foundation stone of new and extensive Schools for the moral and religious in struction of the children of the town, a ceremony which Joseph Sturge, Esq. kindly consented to perform, and that the evening should close with a meeting of the friends of Negro Emancipation in the Town Hall, for which purpose letters of invitation had been sent to many of the most in fluential and distinguished advocates of the cause. At half-past ten o'clock the children of the Cannon Street Bond Street, Graham Street, Newhall Street, and Lom bard Street Sunday Schools, to the amount of 3,000, and the children of the Severn Street, and Anne Street, Lan casterian Schools, amounting to about 500, assembledin the Town Hall, being marshalled by their respective teachers. Their appearance was extremely neat and healthy, and the whole scene was one highly creditable to the philanthropy and liberality of the people of Birmingham. The side and organ galleries were filled with the respectable inhabitants of the town, who appeared to take much interest in the proceedings. The proceedings commenced by the children singing the first hymn, " Behold the glories of the Lamb," after which the Rev. Mr. Swan engaged in appropriate prayer. Then followed the hymn " On the mountain's top appearing." The effect of the voices of several thousand children raised in harmony to the praise of their Creator was sublime and impressive in the highest degree. At the conclusion of the second hymn. Mr. JOHN SCOBEL came forward, and was received with much cheering. He congratulated the numerous au ditory of his young friends upon meeting them in that mag nificent Hall upon so joyous and interesting an occasion. Yesterday he felt that the slaves were in fetters, but on that glorious day their manacles were broken, and they stood forth as freemen.—(Great cheering.) Yesterday his fellow Christians and fellow men, to the number of many thousands, were held the property of his fellow man, to day they were their own property—husbands could em brace their wives as their own property, and slavery, with all its .gloomy and revolting features, was at an end he trusted for ever.—(Loud and continued cheering.) They had manumitted the slave-owner that day as well as the slave himself.—(Hear, hear.) He had no doubt that ere a lengthened period had elapsed they would find these very men who had hitherto withstood all their exer tions, combining with them to put an end to slavery where ever it existed, cursing men, and withering and blasting the best energies of their nature.—(Cheers.) He had the happiness to tell them the West Indians were now pro ferring them their assistance to put down the infamous slave trade, which desolated and degraded One of the fairest por tions of the world, he meant Africa.—(Hear.)He wished to instruct the children that morning in the melancholy and distressing fact that there were annually torn from Africa to fill up the slave market in the new world—that there were annually sacrificed to Mammon and Moloch no less than one hundred and 50,000 human beings. Parents were torn from their children, husbands from their wives, and the natives of Africa from that home which was endeared to them by a thousand delightful re collections—( Hear, hear,)—so that they would perceive, al though they had accomplished the manumission of many of the British colonies, yet they still owed a great debt of justice to Africa, nor would they rest satisfied until they had broken up every slave market throughout - the world— (Cheers)—until the glad time would arrive when all men would recognise all men as brethren, and when' no slavery existed to oppress or distress them from one end of the world to the other. He would not detain them by any lengthened observations ; he was delighted to meet them under such interesting and novel circumstances, and he trusted that the remembrance of that day would be re tained by them till the latest period of their existence. While they rejoiced in their unnumbered privileges, he hoped they would be anxious that. every son and daughter of Adam should be partakers of them—liberty of person, liberty of conscience, and all the blessings and advantages whiel, Christi:in instruction could afford.—( Great cheering.) The Rev. Mr. SWAN then addressed the meeting. He rejoiced with all his heart at the glorious occasion that assembled so many thousands of responsible immortals of the town of E!riningham that di}'. He rejoiced at the presence of their excellent frierid, John Seoble,• who had risked his life in the great cause, committing himself to the winds and waves that he might see with his own eyes and hear with his own ears those miseries which they all de plored, and he was satisfied that they all sympathised with him in his emotions in reference to their beloved sable friends in the West who had been liberated that day.— (Cheers.) They had been duped, and chagrined, and mortified when four years ago they had assembled in that town and sang the song of freedom, which they imagined had been obtained ; but such was not the case. They had been duped and swindled out of twenty millions of money, and the cruelties of the West Indian oppressors were as fierce and unrelenting as ever.—( Hear, hear, bear.) How delightful was the change which they hat day contemplated—not only were the unhappy negroes emancipated, but the slave holders were set at liberty. God grant that they might arrive at the knowledge of His holy name, that they might come to the feet of Jesus and learn those lessons of wisdom and benevolence which lie alone could impart.—( Hear.) They were aware of the labours and exertions of their friend, Joseph Sturge.—(Cheers.) God had put it into his head that lie might visit Jamaica, and introduce the light of that freedom which the negro now enjoyed. Should they not offer their thanksgivings to God who had called him and his coadjutors, to the glorious works, the result of which they were that day met to cele brate. Who, he would ask them, had brought about the happy consummation? He would say that it was, under God, to Joseph Sturge, the friend of freedom—(Great cheering)—to John Scoble their able friend—(Renewed cheering)—and to Geo. Thompson, who had risked his life in America, that he might there blow the trump of freedom and liberate hundreds of thousands, he might say even mil lions of that professing but guilty continent.—( Hear and cheers.) Next to these the noble minded people of Eng land had brought about this consummation—(Much cheer ing)—and, under God, be would say, that the men of Bir mingham had led the way. The Ministers had robbed the Crown of their young Queen Victoria of its brightest jewel, in denying- to her the gratification of having signed the manumission of the negroes. He would conclude by ex pressing a hope that the thousands who had that day been emancipated from bondage would acquire also that immor tal liberty which was only to be obtained through a know ledge of their Redeemer.—(Cheers.) Mr. STURGE then presented himself to the meeting, an d was loudly cheered. He had been called upon quite un expectedly, and hardly knew how to address his young friends. When he visited the island of Jamaica, the liberty of whose inhabitants they were now met partly to celebrate, nothing had afforded him more pleasure than the anxiety evinced by the children of the negroes to acquire moral and religious instruction, and to obtain all the information in their power. The expression of their sympathy, would encourage these children to persevere still more. One of their missionaries, the Rev. Thomas Berkshaw, opened a school in Jamaica, and such was the desire of the children to obtain instruction, that 3,000 or 4,000 assembled on the Saturday, the negroes holiday, many of them having travelled a number of miles for that purpose.—(Hear, hear, and cheers.) He trusted that the example of the negro children would not be lost upon those around him, but that it would stimulate them to take advantage of the privileges they enjoyed of obtaining a sound religious edu cation.—(Cheers.) The Rev. Doctor HOBY then addressed the meeting. He would remind them, that while they were asse:abled in that Hall, the sun of freedom was only just rising in the heavens, over the West India islands, and, perhaps, at that very moment those who now felt themselves free were hailing the blessed light of that luminary which con ferred liberty on themselves and their children.—(Great cheering.) Among those who had exerted themselves for the liberation of the negro, he would mention the name of one as young as themselves, he meant William Knibb.— (Hear, hear.) In the midst of his father's congregation that dear boy was looked up to by the negroes as their best friend.—(Cheers.) He might be looked upon as a martyr to freedom ; for at the early age of twelve years he died; after having devoted himself to the spiritual as well as tem poral advancement of the negroes. After relating some very affecting anecdotes of William Knibb, the Reverend Gentleman concluded by congratulating the children pre sent upon the gratification they must feel at having been present at so interesting a ceremony as that which they were about to assist at, of laying the first stone of a school to commemorate the emancipation of the negroes. After another hymn of thanksgiving had been sung, the refreshments provided for the children, consisting of bread, beef and ham, in great abundance, were ba nded round by Sir E. WILmoT, on taking the chair, said he felt that the expression of their feelings, on the present occasion, were not offered to him personally, but to the holy, sacred, and, he might now add, triumphant cause which they had met to celebrate.—(Cheers.) Ile called it holy and sa cred, because nothing could be more so than that of de livering their fellow-creatures from bondage ; and triumph ant, because, although frequently d e f eate d i n Parliament in forcing the slave-owners to confer freedom, yet public opinion had penetrated further than the law could reach, and in conjunction with other circumstances they had the satisfaction of removing the fetters from the slaves—fetters originally forged by oppression and rivetted by avarice.—(Cheers.) It was the people of Birmingham, in conjunction Kith thousands and tens of thousands of her Majesty's subjects, who had broken the bonds from the slaves and cast the cords from them.—(Hear.) They had done every thing in their power by the expression of public opinion to put an end to the iniquitous traffic which had so lung disgraced the British name and character. The slave owners and legislators of the West Indian Colonies were now coming forward, almost universally, de termined to abolish the apprenticeship laws on the day on which they were now assembled. On that day the sun for the first time rose for them cloudless , - giving them what gave it never before—light, w arm th, an d hope.—(Cheer s .) They ha d met for two objects —one was to congragulate themselves on the final close of the apprenticeship system of slavery throughout the British dominions ; but they had another and more important object which was to see that that emancipation was real and true freedom—(Hear, hear)—not freedom under the mask of slavery —not that freedom by which one man having equal rights with an other should be oppressed by unequal laws, but real true liberty, so that be may be able to take his place as a citizen of the place where he lives, and so that the man born a slave may enjoy the same privileges as the man born free. ---(Loud cheers.) That was the great object of the Meeting. He was not the advocate of liberty in its en larged and too extensive sense—he did not mean the li berty of savage and uncivilized life, but that liberty which must be limited to be enjoyed, and which, like every other blessing, may be defeated by its abuse.—( Hear, hear.) Ho would not detain them longer as they would be ad dressed by gentlemen far superior to himself in eloquence, and who were, he regretted to say, better acquainted with the subject. They had among them a gentleman, a resident of their town, whose name would excite their unbounded enthusiasm—he meant Joseph Sturge—( Vehe ment cheering.) That gentleman had visited the West Indies at great personal risk, and had examined their pri sons, workhouses, and gaols, and had told them on his return, from authority that could not be contested , o f atrocities that could be no longer tolerated. He would conclude by assuring them that he would on all occasions devote 'his best energies to pro mote the objects they had in view. —(Great cheering.) Mr. W.M. NIORGAN then read letters from the Marqui s of Sir Charles Style, M.P. ; M r . C o lli ns, M.P. i. ; Mr. Thor ne l e y, M . P . ; Mr. Winnington, M.P . ; Captain C G I vv r Marr.d Villiers, ; w Pease , jnnn M.Y. ;s n ~ ; M.P. ,; Colonel Salwey, M.P. ; Joseph Mr. Finch, M.P. ; Mr. Smith O'Brien, M.P. ; and Mr. Thomas Attwood, M.P. There were also letters from the Hon. Cecil Forester, M.P. ; Mr. spencer de Horsey, M.P. ; Sir George Strickland, M.P, ; Lord Marcus Hill, M.P. ; and Mr. A. White, M.P. all concurring in the object of the meeting, and regretting their inability to attend. The following letter from Lord Brougham was then read :—.. London, July 30, 1838.
